Awning Stripes
Relatively wide, evenly spaced out stripes of solid color on a lighter background. These stripes are for all the bold one out there! A tricky trend to pull off, but if done correctly you’re sure to steal the limelight. For first timers go with a striped top and a solid lower and seal the deal.
